Mike, it's the aluminum version so it's not too heavy, just over 20 pounds I believe.

I have been wanting one for years now but I haven't been actively looking for one. Then last week I did a search on eBay and found this one listed as a buy-it-now. I thought about it for a couple of hours (don't know why I waited so long) then I pulled the trigger. I honestly can't say why I happened to check ebay when I did, considering I've never searched there for one before. I guess it was meant to be.

Nice. Did you score that one on eBay? There was a green aluminum vise in there for over a week. The guy kept dropping the price by about $50 increments. I was surprised it hadnt sold more quickly. Good price if that's the one. I watched it for the longevity of its listing. Was tempted to buy it, but don't actually "need" another. It's the "want" that keeps ringing in my ears.
